    I;m going to start off with two characters when I get the game. One will be human, and the other will be Apex. After a while, I'll make more characters from different races.

    Trying Human first. For basic sake.
     
  3. Oath

    Oath Subatomic Cosmonaut

    I voted that I'd play a human cause that's what I usually do first in games like this and then I expand from there. Then I saw the Robot option...
     
  4. Lord Kain

    Lord Kain Ketchup Robot

    Human, most likely I'll just make myself as my character.

    1) Apex. Uniforms are too fancy to not try them first! :D I will kill you with a banana sword while you sleep if you disagree. :ninja:

    2) Robots. Very nice helmets!:proper::proper::proper:

    3) Avian. The somewhat social and architectural concept of Avians looks pretty evolved and unique...:idea::D

    4) Florans. I like the idea of carnivorous beings hiding in the forests while luring, trapping and eating adventurers. Still, I find them too... androgynous.:cautious:

    5) Humans. Nothing like... good old humans.:geek:

    6) Hylotl. While I love the concept of underwater societies, the character creation screen of the Hylotl was the one that least impressed me. Not to mention the name of the race which I find it weird already :( X3

    Human, Avian, or Hylotl. I really don't like the Florans' style of architecture/furniture.

    Floran, no doubt; there's just something about them that makes them look so cool.

    Apex, because Humans can't have beards :mad:

    I'm going to be a Floran!

    They have epic hairstyles.

    Avian. I like their buildings and i feel personally that they have the most customization

    Human, almost sure. I like my character to look at least a little relatable and easy on the eyes (especially compared to the Hylotl haha).

    Perhaps Avians second.
     
  12. RedDire

    RedDire Cosmic Narwhal

    Human first, Florian second. Never a robot though.

    I want a character of each species, but I'd like to use an Avian as my main. I like the whole aesthetic style of the Avian people, such as clothes, buildings, furniture, etc.

    It's been speculated that each race will have unique armors with their own starting perks. In light of that, the Human's sounds the best to me; reaching item capacity in the middle of an expedition is the one thing that really grinds my gears in Terraria. Utility characters always interest me, anyway. Besides that, I'll probably try Hylotl if they do indeed have underwater perks like dedicated swimming and breathing. After that I'll just make whoever has the most interesting lore, so probably a Floran and an Apex.

    Although let's be real I'll probably make one Human and then be unable to deal with the lesser storage space and just make more Humans

    I really, REALLY hope that there will be more differences between race than just appearance and the ability to make your own race's armors first. Where is it mentioned that there will be racial differences/perks?

    Just a theory, nothing official yet.

    Human. Maybe human only - I'm not used to have many different characters.

    Either Floran or Human at the start, then a robot, and then everything else.

    Apex, their military apist propoganda and strict dietary rules make them the perfect race for household cleaning and interstellar domination.

    This is true. The only differences between the races are cosmetic and the crafting blueprints you start with. Chucklefish announced this a while ago: They want people to feel free to choose their race by appearance rather than choosing based on racial bonuses.
